Certificates of Graduate Study
A certificate of graduate study is a course of study not linked to the pursuit of a degree. It consists of a coherent set of courses, fewer than for a major, addressing a specific theme. Completion of the requirements for a certificate of graduate study will result in an appropriate notation on the student's academic record.
